so bought this last month from hatari, many thanks to him and the steering wheel will be in the post soon . Took it up for the MOT last week and apart from about 4 small patches of welding it flew through. Its not going to do many miles before the spring so going to spend the winter giving it some much needed attention after the rally history its had. The rear leafs are shot but managed to find a place in rotherham that still have the plans to make them from scratch so going to completely strip it down and replace the bushes. Mechanically it needs is a good service, brakes freeing off and given attention and a new gearbox and clutch at some point. Then its on to the bodywork but most are saying they like the rough rallied look so were keen to keep the rally theme, will be keeping the stickers spotlights etc. If anyone knows of a driver side wing that's for sale that would be very helpful. Comes with stacks of history and papers, was even on the front page of the owners club magazine being rallied about 10 years ago. Its going to be my sisters 1st car in the summer, i cant think of a cooler 1st car and i am seriously jealous so we've said if she bumps or crashes it she may aswel not come home after Put it down for RR2013 al!!!!

the bodywork looks good in general on the pics but it does want attention, its generaly solid though. The wings gone at the bottom, it probably will repair but always better to put on new, in the slim chance that one comes available
